top one prob does what it says. HAHO/HALO is a form of high alt parachuting. HAHO is a bit like paragliding... outof a plane. SO a map fixed to your arm/front etc somewhere visible during flight/fall is probabably valuable.

L87A1 is a fuse to my knowledge, so prob contained fuzes for illumination shells.

The bandolier contains the primers, little cartridges that set off the main bag charge in a gun (ie 105, 155mm calibre).

The OP was speculating as to it being for HAHO/HALO, as it wasn't included in his description marked with quotations:

And because it looks to be 14cm long and wide you'd have a job attaching it to an arm or a leg in such a way that it would both stay on at 120+mph (velcro and button poppers???) and then be readable under canopy.

Oh, Well I didn't know what it was so was speculating from the description.
